Take no Ko in the field... |
When I went to the store day before yesterday, I picked up some snacks for the kids. They got to have a 'special', so they asked for a snack called Take no Ko no Sato... which happens to be one of my favorites as well.
Take no Ko no Sato (Bamboo Shoot Village) |
...and since I just posted a recipe featuring Take no Ko not too long ago, it occurred to me to post a couple of photos about my favorite Bamboo-shaped snack.
Oishiii! |
Has anybody seen these on sale in the US or Europe?
...The 'sister snack', so to speak: Ki no Ko no Yama (Mushroom Mountain). Same little choco-cookie snack, but shaped like little mushrooms.
Moar kawaii! Kids, of course, love either snack (as, for that matter, do I;-))
So if you happen to run across these-- get some! They're good!
Mata asobou, ne!
I haven't seen either treat in stores, but I will look at the Asian supermarkets in Fort Wayne or Indianapolis the next time I go. They are on my list to buy if I see them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing more "cuteness."
